Subject: BS: Obama moving to the right?
I watched Obama introduce his National Security Team on Fox News this morning. After, during the press conference, he was asked to comment on the timetable for US troops leaving Iraq. His reply that he planned to adhere to the agreement negotiated between the government of Iraq and the Bush administration caught me a bit by surprise. For months during the election campaign he emphasized that his first order of business upon being sworn in would be to remove our troops as early as 2009.

He seems to be leaning a bit more toward the Bush administration's POV now doesn't he?
